No matter what, when you major in theater arts whether you want to write or be a director or design scenery or whatever, when you are a freshman at UCLA then - I guess it's still the same way - you had to take an acting class.

My grandmother and I saw an average of eight movies a week, double features, second run.

I don't remember a time when I wasn't waiting for a scab either to grow or to fall off my knee.

Comedy = tragedy + time.

Originally, I came from Texas, and we lived on - I guess you'd call it welfare, what we called relief.

there were times when I was more at home in front of millions of people than I was at home.

No one ever said life was fair. Just Eventful.
